Hiding in the darkest corner,
hidden in his hands
He's a lonely prisoner who doesn't understand
Someone put a lock on his heart and threw away the key
A child without a jury
Kept hidden among his weakness,
caught off his guard
And
suddenly he finds himself behind these prison walls
You can hear him crying so loud,
he's hoping to be heard
Calling out these words
I'm innocent,
so innocent, please rest me
I'm innocent,
so innocent,
oh set me free Deep in the darkest night,
now you can hear
the poor boy cry I'm innocent, so innocent,
oh my
Funny how it seems to happen,
time after time Someone's got to take the blame for someone
else's cry You can hear him crying so loud,
he's hoping
to be heard
Calling out these words
I'm innocent,
so innocent,
please rest me I'm innocent,
so innocent,
oh set me free
Deep in the darkest night,
now you can hear the poor boy cry
I'm innocent,
so innocent, oh my
I'm innocent,
so innocent, oh set me free
I'm innocent,
so innocent,
oh set me free Deep in the darkest night,
now you can hear the poor boy cry
